Sure, I have a long list of customizations I do on windows systems as well, when I find myself on one. The thing I like about linux, however, is that linux configuration is very maintainable. I can replicate my personal linux environment on a new linux machine in a few minutes by simply running a few commands. I find automation/replicability of that kind much harder on windows. Similarly, when I decide to change some aspect of my personal environment, perhaps using new software or a different configuration, the changes are very easy to replicate on all my linux machines, instantly.
